Hi, Just wondering how good is Transcent CF card ? Planning to buy 32 GB. They are about the price of Sandisk 16 GB CF cards http://www.transcend.co.in/Products/Modlist.asp?CatNo=5&LangNo=0&Func1No=1&Func2No=13 |

Have heard of failures with these cards. Rather get the Sandisk Ultra2 if you're on a budget. |

I bought one 32gb transcend card for my honeymoon trip n it conked out on me during the trip. Suddenly after 100+ shots my a900 cannot read the card. Brought it back n luckily can still recover the pictures taken. Stick to sandisk. It is more reliable. If u really want one, I can sell u mine for 50$. Haha |

I had used 2 transcend CF cards and they are serving me well but one of my 2 Sandisk failed. I guess no matter which brand there will also be failures as well. |
